"I felt convinced that Christ died for all mankind – that age, sect, color, country, or situation make no difference. I felt an assurance that I was included in the plan of redemption with all my brethren."

God is of no importance unless He is of supreme importance.

Revelation 5:9 ... with your blood you purchased for God persons from every tribe and language and people and nation.

Revelation 7:9 ... there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb.
